Outside Juxian Tower.

Drusilla Alice classmates and friends left in a hurry.

Before leaving, many people couldn't help but take another look at Ethan Knapp Yi.

Who would have thought that in the face of Orion Clark's aggressiveness, Maxwell Joanna, who had high hopes for them, could only tolerate it, but Ethan Knapp, a guy they had once despised, would actually bring them such a big surprise?

"Ethan Knapp, this favor... I will repay it!"

After hesitating for a moment, Maxwell Joanna put down these words and turned around.

This young man who likes to be in the limelight was obviously depressed after this incident.

"This guy is pretty good."

Ethan Knapp smiled, knowing how to repay kindness is a virtue in itself.

"Brother-in-law, what happened just now..."

Drusilla Alice opened her mouth to speak.

"Let's go home first."

Ethan Knapp interrupted with a smile and stepped forward.

"That's fine."

Drusilla Alice suppressed her worries and hurriedly followed.

"Drusilla, after what happened today, there will be two situations."

When he was about to arrive at the Alice family, Ethan Knapp thought for a moment and said in a gentle voice, "First, Orion Clark went home to find help, and second, he chose to swallow his anger."

Drusilla Alice said anxiously: "How can a playboy like him endure such a big loss today and swallow his anger? He will definitely take revenge!"

Ethan Knapp nodded and said: "Yes, but even if he takes revenge, he will only seek revenge on me. That's fine."

Drusilla Alice became more and more worried. She took a deep breath and said seriously: "Brother-in-law, what happened today is because of me. I will never let you get hurt!"

The girl's pretty face was filled with determination.

"Don't worry, this matter is not as serious as you think."

Ethan Knapp smiled and rubbed the girl's head.

Drusilla Alice hummed absentmindedly and said, "Brother-in-law, I...I'm going back first."

With that said, she turned around and hurried into the Alice family mansion.

Ethan Knapp shook his head helplessly, "Silly girl, even if you ask your parents for help, they won't pay attention."

Immediately, he smiled again. It was naturally a good thing to be cared about and cared about.

As for what happened in Juxian Tower today, to Ethan Knapp, it was not worth mentioning.



"What? That freeloader Ethan Knapp actually beat up Orion Clark?"

In the hall, after learning the whole story from Drusilla Alice, Persephone couldn't sit still and her face was filled with astonishment.

Isidore Alice next to him almost couldn't believe his ears.

Orion Clark.

This is the legitimate son of Huang Astaroth Clark, the head of the Huang family!

"If I hadn't had my brother-in-law today, I would have been bullied miserably by Orion Clark. He also said that he would come to propose marriage in a few days. After marrying me, he would take good care of me!"

With tears in Drusilla Alice eyes, she complained aggrievedly, "Mom, you have to help my brother-in-law no matter what this time!"

Persephone was furious and gritted her teeth and said, "I've heard long ago that Orion Clark, a playboy, has bad conduct and does all kinds of evil. I never thought that he would actually target my daughter!"

"but……"

When Persephone said this, she frowned and said, "It's not easy to solve this matter even with my ability... It's all your father's fault!"

She glared at Isidore Alice fiercely.

Isidore Alice smiled bitterly and said in a muffled voice: "Ethan Knapp was the one who caused the incident. What does it have to do with me?"

Drusilla Alice said anxiously: "Mom, if you don't care about this matter, I will write to my sister for help. She is now a disciple of Tianyuan Academy..."

Persephone slapped her thighs with bright eyes and said, "Yes, your sister's identity and status are already different now!"

She had an idea in her mind and immediately stood up and said: "I'm going to find the clan leader. For Medusa's sake, I don't believe that the clan leader doesn't care about this matter."

Drusilla Alice suddenly laughed and said cheerfully: "Mom, go quickly!"

"Silly girl, I'm here to help you, and by the way, I'm going to help Ethan Knapp who is just eating for nothing."

Persephone said angrily.

"all the same."

Drusilla Alice smiled as brightly as a flower.



The clan hall.

"This loser Ethan Knapp...can actually defeat Orion Clark and those guards?"

After learning about Persephone's purpose, the clan leader Fabian Alice was also stunned, feeling that it was a bit unreal.

"Well……"

Persephone was stunned, yes, Ethan Knapp, a freeloader, has no cultivation at all now!

"Clan leader, no matter what, Drusilla was bullied by Orion Clark. If he comes to take revenge, our the Alice family cannot ignore it."

Persephone face was full of sadness, "When Medusa married Ethan Knapp, it made me want to commit suicide. If Drusilla encounters something unexpected again, I... I really won't survive!"

As he spoke, he covered his face and began to cry.

Fabian Alice frowned, thought for a moment, and then said: "Of course I have to take care of this matter. After all, Drusilla is our Wen family, how can we be bullied by the Clark family?"

Persephone was immediately happy and grateful: "With the words of the patriarch, I feel relieved!"

Fabian Alice shook his head and said with a cold expression: "Don't be happy yet. I only said to protect Drusilla, but I didn't say to protect Ethan Knapp. No matter what the reason, he caused this incident, and he should bear the consequences. .”

Persephone heart sank, and hesitantly said: "Clan leader, if Ethan Knapp hadn't come forward this time, Drusilla would have been bullied miserably. You see..."

Fabian Alice interrupted coldly: "Sister-in-law, I remember that you hated this son-in-law the most before. Why are you saying good things for him now?"

"Don't forget, a few days ago, your son-in-law completely offended Hadrian Bill Mr. Bill in front of all of us. I haven't even settled the matter with him yet!"

At the end of the sentence, his tone was fierce and filled with anger.

Persephone froze and kept chattering. Just when she was about to speak, Fabian Alice interrupted again and said:

"The day after tomorrow is the Old Mistress eightieth birthday. I still have a lot of things to do, so you go first!"

This is tantamount to giving an eviction order.

Persephone didn't dare to pester anymore and left in a hurry.

When he returned to his courtyard, he saw Drusilla Alice already waiting there eagerly.

"Mom, how's it going?"

The girl said with hope.

Persephone forced a smile and said in a vague tone: "The clan leader has promised to intervene in this matter. It's okay. Drusilla, you go back to Songyun Sword Mansion early tomorrow morning and stay there. Orion Clark will never dare to look for it." You’re in trouble.”

"Well! Now it's better, my brother-in-law won't be bullied anymore!"

The girl nodded happily and was very excited.

Persephone felt guilty for a while, and comforted herself in her heart, "Then Ethan Knapp is an outsider. Even if he is punished by the Clark family, as long as he doesn't die, it won't be a big problem..."

"By the way, Drusilla, your brother-in-law...has his cultivation level recovered?"Persephone suddenly remembered this matter.

Drusilla Alice shook his head and said: "I don't know, anyway, in front of my brother-in-law, Orion Clark's guards are completely vulnerable."

At the end of the sentence, her eyes shone, and the scene when Ethan Knapp took action in Juxian Tower came to mind.

Thinking about it now, it made her heart surge.

"I've known for a long time that this kid is shady. In the past year in our family, he has suffered so many glares and sarcasm. Who has ever seen him angry?"

"Like the night your sister came back, this guy made Hadrian Bill almost mad to death with just a few words. He even messed up the whole situation. How can a coward do this?"

"When I get a chance, I have to ask him clearly!"

Persephone sneered, as if she had seen through all of Ethan Knapp's details.

Drusilla Alice smiled and said nothing, but said in her heart, "My Drusilla Alice's brother-in-law is naturally very powerful!"



Guangling City, the Clark family.

The splendid palace was filled with depression.

Orion Clark knelt on the ground and said in a hoarse voice: "Father, I made a mistake. I am willing to accept the punishment. From now on, I will practice hard. In the future, I will repay today's revenge ten times and a hundred times!"

In the main seat of the main hall, the clan leader Astaroth Clark an expressionless face and remained silent.

He has a tall and tall figure, wearing a black robe with wide sleeves. His aura is as deep as the sea. Sitting there casually, he looks like a dragon and a tiger.

The atmosphere became increasingly depressing, making Orion Clark feel breathless.

After a long time, Astaroth Clark suddenly stood up and said with a big smile: "My son has this ambition, and he will become a great person in the future! Get up, I will meet with Ethan Knapp tomorrow to talk about this matter, and we will meet at the right place." Immortal Tower!”

Orion Clark said in astonishment: "Father, why do you bother to go there in person for such a trivial matter?"

Astaroth Clark stepped forward, helped his son up from the ground, and said, "You don't understand. Beating a dog depends on its owner. What's more, you are my son, Astaroth Clark!"

His eyes flashed coldly, and his tone was cold, "With this matter, I also want to let everyone in Guangling City know that you are my, Astaroth Clark's rival, and whoever dares to touch you in the future will end up with the same fate as Ethan Knapp! "

Orion Clark was surprised and happy, and said: "Father, you... plan to kill him with your own hands?"

"Destroy him? No, I will make his life worse than death and suffer humiliation. You will watch it tomorrow."

Astaroth Clark tone was casual, as if he was talking about a trivial matter.



In front of the windowsill desk.

Su Yi sat in front of him, splashing ink, and each of his meaningful and elegant handwriting appeared on the paper.

It wasn't until night fell that Ethan Knapp stopped writing. There was already a thin stack of pages full of handwriting piled on the desk.

"I will give this breathing method to Drusilla early tomorrow morning."

Ethan Knapp secretly said.

Today was Drusilla Alice's sixteenth birthday, but because of his negligence, he forgot to prepare a gift.

Therefore, he planned to use a martial arts training method as a gift to Drusilla Alice.

But what Ethan Knapp didn’t expect was——

When he went to find Drusilla Alice early the next morning, he was told by his servant that Drusilla Alice had already left the Alice family one step ahead and returned to Songyun Sword Mansion to practice.

"Tomorrow is Mrs. Wen's eightieth birthday. Drusilla will definitely be there. It won't be too late to give this gift to her then."

Su Yi shook his head and left the Alice family.

These days, he would go to the "spiritual land" by the Dacang River every morning to practice.

Today is no exception.

It wasn't until ten o'clock in the afternoon that Ethan Knapp returned from outside the city and headed towards the Alice family.

"Tomorrow morning, I will go to treat Kendrick Carter injuries. This will settle the matter... huh?"

On the way, Su Yi was thinking to himself. His footsteps suddenly stopped, as if he noticed something, and he looked not far ahead.

"Mr.Knapp, my lord is here to invite you!"

On the street not far away, an extremely tall old man in black robe came with a group of people, faintly blocking Ethan Knapp's path.
